ABSTRACT

In geotechnical investigation, determination oftheseismic bearing capacity of foundation soil

constitutes an important task. The bearing capacity of soil under static loading has been extensively

studied since the early work of Prandtl (1921).Design of foundation in seismic areas needs special

considerations compared to the static case. The inadequate performance of structure during recent

earthquake has motivated researches to revise existing methods and to develop new method for

seismic resistant design. For foundation of structure built in seismic areas the demands to sustain load

and deformation during earthquake will probably be the severe in their design life. Due to seismic

loading foundation may experience decreases in bearing capacity and increases in settlement. Two

source of loading must be taken into consideration inertial loading caused by lateral forces imposed on

the superstructure, kinematic loading caused by the ground movement developed during earthquake.

Many techniques used for studying the effect of seismic forces on the soil bearing capacity such as, limit

equilibrium method, kinematic approach of yield theory, a variational approach, and unified theory of

stress, which the shape of failure surface has been assumed. The seismic forces are considered as pseudo-

static forces acting both on the footing and on the soil under the footing. However, finite element and

stress characteristics methods shape of the failure is not required to be assumed.

In the present paper, a theoretical analysis has been performed on the basis of Krey's method

(friction circle method) with radius of friction circle equal to = where r is the

radius of the circle slip surface to determine the influence of the earthquake acceleration coefficients

on the seismic bearing capacity of foundation with assisted by a computer program. The present

study is compared with the various theoretical solutions. The comparison of that the present study

predicted values of ultimate seismic bearing capacity of soil are less than others theories of ultimate

seismic bearing capacity. In order facilitate the calculation of seismic bearing capacity, using the

proposed equations. It is a function of (B, Rf, and c)

soil constitutes an important task. The bearing capacity of soil under static loading has

been extensively studies since the early work of Prandtl[17]. Design of foundation in

seismic areas needs special considerations compared to the static case. The inadequate

of structure built in seismic areas the demands to sustain load and deformation during

earthquake will probably be the severe in their design life.

Due to seismic loading foundation may experience decreases in bearing capacity and

increases in settlement. Two source of loading must be taken into consideration inertial

loading caused by lateral forces imposed on the superstructure and kinematic loading

caused by the ground movement developed during earthquake.

Many researchers have studied the seismic bearing capacity of shallow foundations [1-

24].The analytical solutions consist of limit equilibrium method as [3, 7, 8, 18, 19, 21],

kinematic approach of yield design theory [20], a variational approach [11, 22], unified

strength theory [4], stress characteristics [13], and finite element method

[12].DeepankarandSubba[8]used the limit equilibrium method for obtaining the seismic

bearing capacity factors of footing considering a composite failure surface with new

methodology.Vesic et al [22]have been used a pseudo–static method base on a variational

approach for evaluating the seismic bearing capacity of strip footing. In this method, the

inertia force is treated as an equivalent concentrated force (pseudo-static force) applied at

the center gravity of the structure.Castelli and Motto [10]used Bishop's of slices method

with a limit equilibrium method which the failure slip surface as circular from foundation

propagates until the ground surface is reached. Chen et al [4] utilized pseudo-static

analysis and taking the effect of intermediate stress into consideration based on the unified

strength theory. He concluded that the reduction of bearing capacity is mainly due to the

inclination effects resulting from cyclic earthquake shear and normal loads because of

structural inertia. The ratio of seismic to static bearing capacity factors depend on the

accelerations coefficients of seismic. Roberto and Pecker [20] used the kinematic approach

of yield design theory for evaluating the seismic effects on the ultimate bearing capacity of

shallow foundation on Mohr- Coulomb soil. The development of a new kinematic

mechanism taking into account the possible uplift of the foundation under strong load

eccentricities has permitted the investigation of the general case where the foundation is

subjected to combined action of inclined and eccentric load as well as soli inertia. Kumar

and Mohon[13] used the method of stress characteristics for determining the ultimate

seismic bearing capacity factors.In this method, the shape of the failure surface is not

required to be assumed, which the solution is obtained by satisfying simultaneously the

equilibrium and failure conditions everywhere within the plastic domain.

Many experimental work have been done to determine the seismic ultimate bearing

capacity and mechanism of failure for soil under footing [1, 5, 16, 23, 24]

With the latest advances in computer speed, linear and nonlinear analyses have found

more applications in soil mechanics including the seismic bearing capacity problem have

been used. However, finite element solutions are approximations to the exact solution.

Finite element method used to determine seismicultimate bearing capacity of soil [12].

They have been used the finite element method with pseudo-static approach to estimate the

seismic bearing capacity of strip footing which satisfies Mohr-coulomb strength criterion

for wide range of and seismic coefficient using Plaxis 2D. They concluded that soil

inertia plays a negligible role compared to the structural seismic load.

In the present work, a numerical study is carried out for the strip footing to investigate

the effect of the footing width and depth to width ratio rest on the humongous soil (c,φ ) on the ultimate seismic bearing capacity using modified Krey’s method[14] assisted by a computer , MATLAB, program,

2. Modified Krey’sMethod for Seismic Analysis

In fact, the surface failure of the soil due to footing load is continuous surface not

broken lines. Krey (1936) suggested a graphical method to determine the soil bearing

capacity under strip footing. The surface being assumed to consist of a circular arc

underthe footing, terminating in a tangent at (Choudhury and SubbaRao[7]

degrees to the ground. Krey’s method is the same friction circle method of the stability

of slop. The radius of the friction circle equal to .Krey statedthat

the center of the most dangerous circle would lieon the same level as the underside of the

footing andvarious trial centers are taken at this level.

Krey’smodels contain active zone ABDJK and passive zone DGJ. Failure occurs when

passive zone sliding up on the plane DG by the effect of rotating mass of the active zone

about center of arc BD see Fig.(1).

8- Now there are three forces at only one point R (resultant of (W, E and S), F (soil

resultant reaction on slip surface, known direction and application point tangent of

friction circle from left side but undetermined value) and Qultd(ultimate load can

carry by footing, know direction and application point.

9- Draw a tangent to the friction circle through M (intersected R, Qultd) to obtain the

direction of the F, the force triangle can be completed and Qultdcan be obtained.

10- This procedure is repeated for several trial circles and the minimum value of

theQultdcan be obtained.

To avoid the phenomenon of shear fluidization (i.e., the plastic flow of the material at

finite effective for the certain combination of kh and kv (Richards et al (1990) and

from the stability criteria (Sarma (1990) the consider in the analysis are to

satisfy the relationship given by

The deduced formula for determining qultd,,N q,Ncd,rc, rq and r

6.1. Seismic ultimate bearing capacity of soil (qultd)

The relation between ultimate seismic bearing capacity of soil(qultd) versustanφ (φ is the

angle of internal friction of soil) at different acceleration seismic coefficients (khand kv)are

plotted and shown in Figs. (3-7). It is clear that with increasing φ and B the qultdincreases

for a constant value of Rf. Figs.(3-4) have the same trend for the given values of Rf = 0.0 ,

0.5, 1,and 2). Figs (5-6) show the relation between qultdand tan (φ) for different value of

cohesion of soil, c.It is clear that with increasing φ and c the qultdincreasers for a constant

value of Rf. Figs.(5-6) have the same trend for the given values of Rf = 0.0 , 0.5, 1, 1.5 and

2. The ultimate seismic bearing capacity decreases considerably with increasing

accelerations coefficients.

6.2.Maximum extent of failure surface (w/B)

The relation between (w/B) versustan(φ) are plotted and shown in Figs. (8and 10). It is

clear that with increasing (φ) the w/B value increases.Fig (10) shows the relation between

(w/B) and tan (φ) for different,kh,andc. It is clear that by increasing (c)the (w/B) value

slightly effectfor a constant value of kh. Form Figs (9, 10) may be neglected the effect of

the cohesion of soil on the (w/B) and take the effect of friction only and accelerations

coefficients.

6.3.Maximum depth of failure surface from the ground surface (do/B)

The relation between ((do/B)) versustan (φ)are plotted in Figs. (9 and 11).It is clear that

with increasing φ the (do/B) increases and decreasing with kh. Fig (11) shows slightly

effect of c on the do/B while do/B decreases with increasing of kh.

Based on the results, the relation between qultdandtan φ is drawn for different values of B= 1, 2, 3 and 4, kh = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 and Rf =0.0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2. As shown in

Figs.(3-4) for Rf =0.0 and 0.5. At all cases the ultimate seismic bearing pressure increases

exponentially with increasing and linearly with increasing B at a certain Rf. The

relationship between qultdand B for the different values of φ, kh and Rf, may be represented

by the following expression

7. Ratio of Seismic to Static Bearing Capacity Factors

The seismic to static bearing capacity factors depend on the acceleration ratio where

khand kv are the horizontal and vertical seismic coefficients with the failure zone. In

analysis subscripts d and s signify earthquake and static condition. A simple approach to

account for seismic effects is to reduce the static bearing capacity factors

where: , , .

The ratio of seismic to static bearing capacity factors are given in Table No. 4

Table 4.

0.6 0.051

Form the Table No. 4 ratio of seismic to static bearing factors decreases with increasing

tan (φ) at a certain kh by small value, therefore taking the average value and use the simple

formula.All the deduced formula can be easily calculated by ordinary calculator.

8. Application of the Program and Deduced Formula and Comparison with

Others

Some examples were solved using program and the formulas given by author,

comparison with the references given in Figs (16-17). Fig. 16 shows the qultd versus tan (φ) at B =1 m, Rf = 1, c = 2t/m

2 and = 1.8t/mγusing different methods. It is clear that the

qultdby current method (modified Krey’s method) less than others methods. Fig.17 shows

the ratio between seismic to static bearing capacity factors from researches and current

method.

recommend program based on footing characteristic and soil properties described in

details of the case study. Simple formulas were deduced base on results obtained from

run of computer program for the case study to calculate easily by a calculator (qultd, Ncd,

Nqd ,N d, rc, rq, and r ). A comparison was made between results of present work and

researches to evaluate to mention items. The obtained results approximately well agree

with some pervious work. In this provides the designer a means of evaluating the

seismic bearing capacity factors from the static ones.
